Not so much a modern show anymore, but still cool: School House Rock. This is from the song A Noun is a Person, Place or thing. Love it.

Oh, I put a dime in the drugstore record machine.Oldies goldies started playing if you know what I mean.I heard Chubby Checker, he was doin' the twistAnd the Beatles and the Monkees, it goes like this!I put a dime in the drugstore record machine.

Well every person you can know (The Beatles and the Monkees, Chubby Checker)And every place that you can go (Like a neighborhood or a store)And anything that you can show (Like a dime or a record machine)You know they're nouns.

Goldfinger: James Bond says ' My dear girl, there are some things that just aren't done, such as drinking Dom Perignon '53 above the temperature of 38 degrees Fahrenheit. That's just as bad as listening to the Beatles without earmuffs!'

The Blues Brothers: 'Who do you think we are the fu**ing Beatles or something?'.

Poltergeist: When the father is trying to make the mother feel better, he sings 'If I fell' to her.

In Apollo 13, when we see the daughter of one of the astronauts she's carrying 'Let It Be'.

Rain man: Raymond and Charlie sing 'I saw her standing there' while in the bathroom.

'Because' is playing at the end of American Beauty.

And my favourite Beatles quote from 'Sliding Doors: The character of James says this, 'Everyone is born knowing every single Beatles lyric. It's ingested into the fetus along with all that amniotic stuff. In fact, they should be called "the Fetals'.

You reminded me in Apollo 13, just before the family goes to mission control and learns the mission is not being broadcast, the teenage girl is having a fit and doesn't want to go. "I hate Paul!" And her little sister teases, "Is she still going on about the Beatles breaking up?" I loved this quote because for many people, this will remind them clearly of the time period where the Apollo 13 incident took place.

All you've got to do is choose love. That's how I live it now. I learned a long time ago, I can feed the birds in my garden. I can't feed them all. -- Ringo Starr, Rolling Stone magazine, May 2007<br />

i remember that quote! i had to watch that movie in school, and that was pretty much the only part i rember paying attention to.

I was reading Pet Sematary (Stephen King) and in the pet cematary was a grave marker that said "RINGO OUR HAMSTER 1964-1965"

King has made several Beatle reference in a few of his books. One off the top of my head is Needful Things. I am sure there are others.

Also, I was watching "Everybody Loves Raymond" (don't ask me why I was bored) and his mom and dad were talking about how much they love jazz music and his mom made a comment "Those Beatles were just terrible!"

Does anyone remember the episode of The Simpsons (it's probably over 10 years old) when Homer became part of a 4-piece band that paralleled the Beatles? I could be wrong but I think the band was Homer, Flanders, Moe the bartender and Barney (the barfly who's always burping).

the other day in an episode of "Life Goes On" (which had Ob-la-di Ob-la-da as the original theme song, but then they changed it ) one of the kids was like, "when you met Mom at the skating rink, and it was Beatles night,"

"The Power Puff Girls"...........remember them? I know this because years ago my not so little Greg used to watch this cartoon. I think they had an entire episode or two of like "The Balad of John and Yoko" and had monkeys playing the parts.........I need to check it out on YouTube. It was good, what I remembered...........
